No!
God's existence cannot be proven or disproven. Welcome to the realm of agnostica!
Science is a system of understanding through observation.
Spirituality is a relationship with God.
The two are exclusive of each other. It's why Creationists and Evolutionists are never going to get along.
Look at it this way. If God provided concrete PROOF of his existence, you wouldn't have faith, you'd have certainty, wouldn't you? What use would God have with a bunch of blindly obedient, cowering followers?
He wants you to think, and feel and get to know Him. Your faith in him is a gift to him.
Keep asking tough questions. God wants us to "be discerning"!

No. There isn't any proof of his existence OR of his non-existence. That's why the discussion goes on.
However, the lack of proof in either case is not proof of the opposite view. (You know, just because you cannot prove he exists doesn't mean he doesn't and the other way round).

while there is no scientific proof that he does or does not exist, he does exist in ppl's mind. as long as there is that belief, he will exist. the same goes for every other deity that ppl have faith in. however it is humans that have corrupted the idea of God. when something goes wrong, no one takes credit for being responsible for it, they automatically blame God, but when something good happens everyone wants a piece of the credit. humans have free will that is why no one can be free of sin completely. kinda off the topic but oh well.

no that's why there's hundreds of religions... it's funny though, because a famous religious theorist named James Taylor said that religion is a stage between magic and science. The first religions (possibly the oral religions) were all about magic and as the years pass the religions start turning out to be closer to science than magic.... maybe one day it will be completely science... maybe not..... look up all the religions, from the newest to the oldest, of course there are some exceptions, but most are getting closer to science and are growing very rapidly. Also look up the most common religions worldwide as of 1995 and 2006....

Such proof is a logical impossibility. You cannot prove a negative. That is basic Logic 101. As a Christian, you really should be honest in your postings. That is one question I don't ask for that very reason.

There is no such things as "proof" that something does NOT exist. What evidence can you offer me to "prove" that smurfs don't exist?

It is not possible to prove that something does not exist.
The burden of proof rests with those proposing the existence of something.

To attempt to prove something does not exist is a logical fallacy every time.

There is no proof that he does exist. You cannot prove a negative.
